Executives from the Food Marketing Institute (FMI), ACNielsen and The Lempert Report today announced the launch of Facts, Figures & The Future, a monthly e-publication that provides retailers with the most comprehensive review and analysis of the latest consumer trends, its impact on the retail environment and insightful future thinking.
Each full-color e-publication will contain approximately 10 reports that include easy-to understand charts, explaining the impact of the most important consumer trends to the supermarket.
“Drawing from the depth and breath of our consumer information database and the integrated capabilities of the entire VNU organization, ACNielsen analysts will share both rich content and insights,” says Tim Callahan, president, ACNielsen US. “Facts Figures & The Future will provide retailers with a 360° view of the consumer.”
Consumer Trends Expert Phil Lempert will serve as editor of Facts, Figures & The Future.

You can also access Facts, Figures & The Future by clicking on the button on the right hand side of the home page…which we think you ought to do, because there’s no substitute for understanding the consumer.
We like to think of this as a connect-the-dots approach to marketing…not thinking or acting in a vacuum. And we know from our work with Phil Lempert and The Lempert Report that nobody does it better.
